The timestamps in the log suggest that it's flowing through the redirect
to the login handler and back to the AuthnEngine with no stop in between
to even try to log the user in. That doesn't seem right to me. If you file
a bug, I'll eventually try and identify if there's a code path that would
make that possible. But I don't know offhand what could cause it.

I would check your web server access logs also and see what the actual URL
requests look like in that sequence.
